Reichstag Tuesday.
i
Special Prices from the Grocery Department of
Berlin, May 13. While the bait-
ing or tne imperial cnanceior is go-
in on, the events of the last forty
eight hours would seem to indicate
that Dr. Von Bethmann-IIolIweg's
position continues absolutely secure
ihe cnancelolr returned irom a
hurried visit to great headquarters
Saturday morning and left the same
night for Vienna, after having spent
the day in conferring with the Reich
stag party leaders with respect to
the interpellation on Germany's war
aims.
Both his visitto great headquar
ters and his trip to the Austrian cap
ital were made in connection with
the chancelor's declaration covering
the war aims, which he will submit
to the Reichstag Tuesday.
It is contended that the chancellor
holds enough strong cards in the
present military situation, the suc
cess of the U-boats, the record sixth
war loan ana tne improvement in tne
food situation, to beat off his oppon-
! er.ts.
DER KAISER'S PRAYER.
Mine Gott, will yon be mine pardner?
You don't know who I am?
I am the German Kaiser,
De Emperor Will-I-Yam.
You know I whipped dem Belgians,.
Und mitt bullets filled Russia full;
Und I'll whip France and Italy
Und blow up Johnny Bull.
Now all dem other nations,
I don't give a dam,
If you just be mine pardner
And whip that Unkie Sam.
You know I got dem submarines;
All Europe know dot well;
But dot" Edison got a patent now
Vot blows dem all to hell.
Now, Gott, if you do this,
Den you I'll always live;
Und I will be emperor of the earth
Und you be emperor above.
But, Gott, if you refuse me dis
Tomorrow night at 'leven,
I'll call my Zeppelins out
Und declare war on Heaven.
I wouldn't ask dis from you,
But it can be plainly seen
Dot when Edison pushes dot button
I got no submarine.

GERMANS HAVE FORCED
AMERICANS AND FRENCH
TO JOIN GERMAN ARMY
London, May 1C. Herr Kunert, a
socialist member of the reichstag, at
the sitting Friday, according to a Rou
ter dispatch from Amsterdam, which
quotes the Norddeutsche Allgemeine
Zeitung, questioned the government
about the incorporation of foreigners
into the German army. He declared
the foreigners in this category in
cluded North American citizens who
had been provided with official identi
fication papers. Ilerr Kunert asked
what the chancellor contemplated do
ing in connection with this subject.
Colonel Marquardt, replying for the
government, said the war minister
would communicate with military
commanders, and after an investiga
tion of the whole question, would or
der the release of any person unjustly
incorporated into the army.
Kunert then asked whether the
chancellor was aware that the same
compulsory measure had been applied
to Frenchmen and Poles?
Colonel Marquardt's answer was
that he had nothing to add to what
he already had said.
When Kunert insisted upon knowing
what action the chancellor intended to
take against such violation of inter
national law and violence, the presi
dent intervened, saying this was a
new question.

The Journal has on several occa
sions warned the farmers of the im-
pending shortage of steel and other
, commodities used in the manufacture
j of fn- ra implements,
j Ad lit i.r.al emphasis is g ven on this
(J the college of agriculture university
of Lincoln, who advises that the ap
portionment of steel to the implement
manufacturing concerns this year wi!
only be half the normal amount, be
cause of the heavy demands of the
government.
As affording considerable relief to
this situation the Journal has hereto
fore and again advised the farmers to
look well over the discarded machinery
about the farm, much of this can be
repaired at nominal expense, and in
many cases made equal if not better
than new by our local machine shops,
as Flattsmouth now has in operation
one of the best machine shops in the
country (the Western Machine and
Foundry, under the management of
Mr. L. C. Sharp), we cannot under the
circumstances recommend too strongly
that our farmers take advantage of
these domestic opportunities whereby
they can have their mowers, reapers,
hellers, grinders, binders, engines,
tractors, pumps, and tools generally
overhauled or rebuilt into practically
new and useful machines. Many val
uable machines have been discarded
by farmers simply because parts be
come worn, perhaps broken or work
hard; frequently these troubles are
only minor and can be quickly, and at
small expense, be renewed at local ma
chine shops. Hundreds of thousands
of dollars of good machinery goes to
the scrap yearly from the farms, when
if such machines were turned over to
our community shop, could be saved
for much useful service. We would
advise farmers to take advantage of
cur local shops on the conservation of
such machinery, the advantages are
many fold, this work keeps our men
emploj-ed and the money is spent at
home, it is a convenience to the farm
ers as well as a saving in money for
himself. In this connection we take
pleasure in calling attention to the
advertisement of the Western Machine
and Foundry, located in Plattsmouth,
whose ad appears elsewhere in this
paper, we recommend them fully to
the machine users of the community.
ANNOUNCE3IENT OF MARRIAGE.
Paper and Faint Store I
Hotel Riley Block, Plattsmouth k
The friends of Miss Caroline
Greenwald have received the an
nouncement of her marriage to Mr.
Fred W. Miller, which occurred on

gaged in business. The many friends
in this city of the bride will extend

residents of this section, died Satur
day evening shortly after 8 o'clock at

nie Hill, south of this city. Mrs. Beins
had been in the best of health and
was not apparently ill until a few
minutes before her death, when she
was taken very sick, and in a few min
utes had breathed her last. The cause
of her death is thought to be heart
rouble. Mrs. Beins was 74 years of
age at the time of death and had been
a resident of Plattsmouth and vicinity
lor a great many years, and was a
lfwlv iinivprs.il! v loved nnd rpsnppfpd

mg ner during ner years or residence

CHILDREN DO MISCHIEF.
A number of the families in the resi
dent section of the city have reported
that in the last few days there has
been numerous cases of children vis
iting the homes of parties during
their absence and taking flowers and
mashing up beds of flowering plants
and shrubs in a very serious manner.
This is something that should be
looked into, and the parents of chil
dren should look after them and see
that these depredations are checked
before some of the young people get
into serious trouble as a result of it.
